Problem

With the 2026 presidential election approaching, politicians and campaigns are entering TikTok and short-form platforms, and the risk of violating the Public Official Election Act—such as prohibition of pre-election campaigning outside the election period, spreading false information, and defaming candidates—is surging. Campaign staff and small PR agencies produce 5-10 short-form videos daily without legal experts, and a single violation can result in fines of at least 3 million KRW (approx. $2,250) and damage to the campaign's image. Currently, they either pay lawyers 100K-300K KRW (approx. $75-$225) per case or rely on their own judgment, incurring legal costs of over 1 million KRW (approx. $750) per month or accepting the risk of violations.

Solution

A SaaS that automatically extracts subtitles and audio from short-form videos and checks them against key provisions of the Public Official Election Act (pre-election campaigning, false information, defamation, restrictions on publishing opinion polls, etc.). (1) On video upload, STT + text analysis highlights potentially violating sections, (2) provides guidance on fines and criminal penalties by violation type, (3) automatically generates suggested revised wording. The differentiator is over 90% cost reduction compared to existing legal consultation and immediate feedback.

Target: Political campaign short-form staff (20s-30s), political PR agencies with 1-5 employees, and politicians planning to run in local elections.
Revenue Model: SaaS monthly subscription: 49,000 KRW/month per account (includes 50 video checks per month), additional checks at 500 KRW (approx. $0.38) each. 20% discount for annual payment. Election-season limited Premium Plan at 99,000 KRW/month (approx. $74) (unlimited checks + hotline to law firm).
